Ayrshire Pulmonary Fibrosis Support Group

info

Keeping well this summer

During the summer months, hot weather combined with humidity can make you feel breathless. Hayfever and pollutants may also aggravate your symptoms of cough and breathlessness.

If you're concerned about this, please contact the group organiser for information about how group members are keeping in touch and how the group manages the hot weather.

Read more about managing pulmonary fibrosis in hot weather..

Being diagnosed and living with a lung condition can be challenging. Support groups offer the opportunity to meet others who understand what you are going through and are open to anyone affected by pulmonary fibrosis - patients, family, carers and friends.

We have a range of speakers on topics such as singing for lung health, keeping active, healthy eating, mental wellbeing, travel insurance and the latest news in research and treatments. Specialist staff are sometimes available for information and advice, and we also arrange informal social events from time to time. Why not come to one of our meetings and check us out?
